Keylogging explodes
Quoting Ken Dunham of VeriSign iDefense, the report said this was in line with the "change in motive towards crimeware".
Keyloggers are small programs that record all or selected keystrokes, then sends that data to the hacker. Hackers are on pace to deploy a record-setting 6 191 different keyloggers in 2005, 65% up on the 3 753 keyloggers released in 2004, said iDefense.
